| Great Big Sea Show Reviews |
| Attending a Great Big Sea Concert is one of the most exciting experiences. You don't watch as much as you participate in the show. You are invited to sing along with the band, dance around and just enjoy yourself. Alan frequently pleads, "Have a dance, for God's sake!" These are shows I've seen so far. After having discovered GBS in Cape Breton in July 1997, I didn't get to see them in Philly till the fall of 1998. We've traveled North to Boston, South to Washington DC, and by the end of the summer, West to Seattle to see the b'ys. Travelling to and from shows and partying before and after is part of the GBS experience. Visit the Chatroom at the official GBS website, the Online Kitchen Party. You are bound to meet some wonderful people who will be more than happy to meet you at concerts and make you feel at home. Click on the link for the show and you'll find reviews and pictures. If you can't attend a show, then by all means go out and buy their Road Rage CD. It's almost an exact replica of a GBS live show! |
